Zhang Yuan started recovery training early, did not practice with the whole team, and only started to train with the team three days after Barry, the performance of his teammates in training really made him very ashamed, alas, his teammates worked so hard for promotion, but he was abandoned at home for nearly a month, and did not make any contribution to the team, which is really embarrassing.

How did he know that his teammates worked so hard because of him, his teammates worked so hard, he, the person who returned to the team, naturally can't fall behind, and he also didn't care that he had just recovered from injury, and he worked hard in training, he was really not active in defense before, but now he is working hard to participate in defense in training, and he is really shooting and shoveling on the training ground.

The effect of this is that seeing that Zhang Yuan, this kid, has just come back from injury, he is fighting like this, we are not lagging behind, and his teammates are working harder.

Martini snickered and said to Akori, "Leon, look, this kid is back, and everyone is getting more and more energetic!"

"That's just right!" Akori was also naojo in his heart.

On 19 May, Rimini travelled to Spezia, a small club in La Spezia, but they have won a national championship, which is a bit of a glorious history for Rimini. This season's relegation situation is very unclear, in addition to Pescara and Crotone, everyone unanimously agreed that there will be relegation, the remaining as many as 11 teams have the possibility of theoretical relegation, each other points are very close, relegation play-offs are estimated to be inevitable, now these teams want to get points, at least don't rank fifth from the bottom in the end, because in addition to the last three relegations, the bottom four will also be relegated, but if the difference between the points and the bottom five is greater than ten points, it is also a direct relegation, looking at the current situation, the difference between the bottom four and the bottom five is difficult to reach ten。 Spezia are part of that group, so this game is important for them, and Rimini is also important if they are to keep their promotion hopes alive.

So this game was played very openly, everyone did not try, there was no grinding, and the bayonet was shown on the field, the real knife and the real gun were done, and whoever fell was unlucky.

Considering that Zhang Yuan had just recovered from his injury, Akori did not take Zhang Yuan with him this time but left Zhang Yuan in Rimini, Zhang Yuan could only watch the live broadcast of the game at home, needless to say, Zhang Yuan was very nervous.

In the 10th minute of the first half, Rimini scored, Jeda received a long diagonal pass from Richiuti, successfully countered offside, and scored a goal with a single knife, and Rimini, who was playing away, took the lead.

Spezia equalised in the 20th minute when their centre-back Pecolari headed home from a corner.

In the 27th minute, Spezia took the lead and it was also a corner kick opportunity, this time it was their midfielder Frara who stabbed the back of Handanovic's goal in the midst of the scramble.

In the 43rd minute, Rimini equalized the score, and Pagano received a return pass from Jada and fired home from distance at the edge of the box.

Yibian fought again, and the two sides seemed to converge a little, and the high-intensity desperateness in the first half would not be able to converge a little in the second half.

After twenty-five minutes, it was Spezia who couldn't hold their breath, and the relegation battle could not be lost, and they began to press the attack aggressively, but this gave Rimini a chance, and in the 79th minute, Moskaldelli took the ball on the side and broke through the cross, which was a low flat ball, and Jeda grabbed the front point to shovel and once again exceed the score.

Just three minutes later, in the 82nd minute, Richiuti took a corner kick and Digan headed it back to give Rimini a two-goal lead.

It wasn't until the 91st minute of stoppage time that Spezia closed the gap with a long-range shot from De Guzman, a loan from Juventus, but 4-3 was the final score, with Rimini winning the game by one goal and winning all three points.

Zhang Yuan was frightened when he watched it at home, not a score of 4:3, but a game scene, the two teams didn't seem to care so much about defense today, everyone created a lot of opportunities, the goal was full of danger, and the busiest was probably the goalkeepers on both sides. When Rimini took the lead by two goals, Zhang Yuan's heart fell a big stone, this kind of game is better to come a few times, ordinary people may think it looks good, but people like Akori and Zhang Yuan will not think so when they look at the scene.

What surprised Rimini's players even more was that Genoa, who started at the same time, drew with Bari, so that the gap between Rimini and Genoa was reduced to six points, and if Rimini lost one of the remaining three rounds, it would not affect them to play the play-offs.

Zhang Yuan will return in the next game, and Akori has a bit of a headache now, after all, the team is playing well in these three games, and Zhang Yuan has returned and changed formations, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, no one can say.

During the training, Akori consulted Martini, Martini thought about it and said: "It's not a good thing to change the formation rashly now, our current formation has played well in these few games, if the formation changes interrupt this continuity, the consequences are unpredictable, we must now maintain the stability of the lineup formation, as for Zhang Yuan, I suggest that it is best to make tactical additions as at the beginning!"

Akori himself thought about it for a while, and felt that Martini's words were very reasonable, now they really can't afford the bad consequences of changing the formation, and it is better not to change the formation, although this is not a good thing for Zhang Yuan, but it is a good thing for the team, and individuals must obey the interests of the team.

Of course, Zhang Yuan will not know Akori's calculations, he works very hard in training, he wants to start, he wants to help his team win, but it is not (but it is useless!), the day before the home game against Aresso, Akori announced the starting and substitute lineup for the next day's game at the end of training, Zhang Yuan failed to choose the starting lineup but substitute.

Zhang Yuan was very depressed, he wanted to find Akori and say that he had no problem, his body was completely fine, and he could start, but in the end he didn't do it, and he shouldn't question the coach's decision.

The next day's home stadium was still full, and the last few games have ignited the hope of the fans, and the enthusiasm for watching the game has risen again, many people are holding the "Lightning Kid" sign, the style of the sign is exactly the same as the one Docilia did the first time, everyone knows that the Lightning Boy Zhang Yuan has recovered, and this game should be able to start.

But the final appearance disappointed everyone, Zhang Yuan did not start, but sat on the bench, his face was calm, and he couldn't see joy, anger and sorrow.

Rimini will face Aresso today is also a member of the relegation army, even if they face Rimini away they have to do their best to win, a draw is not very meaningful to them, winning and getting three points is their goal.

After the opening, Aresso did not look like an away battle, pressing on the attack, Rimini was in a passive defensive situation at home, if you want to say who is higher in overall strength, it must be Rimini who is a little higher, but the stadium can never judge the result with strength, especially when encountering a desperate opponent.

Akori also expected in advance that Areso would not be polite to Rimini when he played, he chose a conservative tactic and played defensive counterattack, but Areso's defense is obviously much more reliable than Spezia, and he did not forget to defend while attacking, and worked hard to get rid of Rimini's feet, but he didn't give Rimini any decent chance, at this time Akori couldn't help but regret a little, in such a space, if Zhang Yuan was on the field, at least the speed and dribbling could pose a great threat to the opponent, and the breakthrough ability of several frontcourt players on the field was far inferior to Zhang Yuan.

Areso's desperate efforts paid off, and they broke the deadlock on the pitch in the 26th minute, when Areso's striker **** Pato, who had been on loan from Juventus, received a cross from his teammate and headed past Rimini's goal, giving the away team a 1-0 lead.

Watching the Areso players celebrate, Akori felt a fire in his heart, yelling at Rimini's players, and he felt that his players' spirit on the field was completely inferior to that of Areso.

It's a good thing that he's found out about this situation now, originally from Piacenza's anger, Rimini's players just held their breath and wanted to prove themselves, but they ushered in two consecutive wins, and everyone relaxed a lot, plus the gap with Genoa narrowed to 6 points, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, so it's normal to be a little slack on the field.

If Akori did not choose to defend and counterattack at the beginning, but chose to attack with Areso like in the last few games, the effect may be better, and there is no continuation of the tactical strategy of the last few attacks, and suddenly let the players defend after the opening, so that the players on the field are more or less unhappy, they are better than Areso in terms of attack power in the front court, and they may not be able to score goals better than Areso in the attack.

After Aresso scored, he did not shrink the defense and continued to hold high the banner of attack, it seems that he wants to take advantage of Rimini's current situation to further expand the lead, after all, the one-goal lead is not safe at all, if Rimini scores a goal in the second half, three points will immediately become a point, but two goals are much safer. Akori saw that the opponent did not change his tactics, and he did not make adjustments, the opponent attacked, and it was better to fight a counterattack by himself than to fight a positional battle.

Areso is not a vegetarian, not to mention, in the 36th minute they really seized the opportunity again, this time Pecarisi made a mistake, Areso's side low cross small penalty area, very fast, Pecarisi cleared the ghost and kicked the ghost, the ball just changed a little direction, just Areso midfielder Goretti just received the ball, did not stop the ball and pushed it directly, the ball went into the door guarded by Handanovic, Handanovic regardless of his loan player and his youth, yelled at Pecarisi, Pecarisi used his shirt to face, this mistake is too undeserved。

Aresso, who is playing away, has a two-goal lead over Rimini, and the fans at the scene sounded a burst of boos, this boo is not for Aresso, but for Rimini's players on the field, grandma's, you are too good at it, two goals were scored in the first half, and it is really a fight that can't be helped!
